Christmas cheer in a bottle, that's what I call the Anchor Brewing Company's Special Ale. I am always a little worried that I will miss the release of this beer, however this year I needn't have been concerned. Getting our wires crossed, Vinomaker and I both bought some Anchor Christmas ale (their 44th annual bottling). I bought a six pack and Vinomaker bought one bottle. But what a bottle it is.
Adorned with a Korean Pine (Pinus koraiensis) this year, the one, big bottle is massive, 50.7 fluid ounces. Yes, folks, that is just about 1.5 litres of beer. The bottle is heavy. H-e-a-v-y! It's huge. We may have to throw a party to get rid of it. At the very least, I see a pizza night in my future.
